Top Team Alignment
This document discusses aligning an organization's top team to realize superior performance. It proposes conducting workshops to help define the organization's direction, values, goals and roadblocks. The workshops would help the top team agree on a vision, priorities, metrics and milestones. They would also identify barriers and create an implementation plan with accountabilities and timelines. The outcome would be greater alignment of the top team around the organization's strategic direction and priorities.
